In Defect, you'll step into the boots of a lowly captain on a remote planet, tasked with a seemingly simple mission: build a ship and send it off. However, your crew has other plans – they're defecting to the enemy. This betrayal sets you on a path of relentless pursuit. You must design and construct a new vessel, not just to complete your original mission, but to hunt down those mutinous traitors.
Overview
Defect is a unique blend of ship design, strategy, and action where your creations can quickly become your greatest adversaries.
